Things have got to get better, they can't get worse, or can they?

Looks like the glorious Mozilla Corporation finally managed to get rid of their old cache bug with this release. My FFPortable kept displaying webpages wrongly and distortedly, if FF had been running for some hours (am using FFP with a hard disk cache). Allegedly that bug had been corrected several versions before. Certainly not in the FFPortable versions I had been using since then. Funnily, the page most affected by that bug always was portableapps.com! The bug hasn't appeared since yesterday. Knock on wood...

Edit: Oh [####]! The bug just reappeared. Screenshot of wrongly displayed portableapps.com homepage and forum.
